Looks like a great list so far. Thoughts on these? Berserkers' Onslaught, Gratuitous Violence, Champion of Stray Souls, Gadrak, the Crown-Scourge, Torbran, Thane of Red Fell, Void Beckoner, Basilisk Collar, Vorpal Sword, Brood of Cockroaches, Midnight Reaper, Syr Konrad, the Grim

I really like that green has stuff like Progenitor Mimic , Scute Swarm , Spawnwrithe , Giant Adephage , and Permeating Mass , as well as Rhys the Redeemed . But I want a card like Brood of Cockroaches , Endless Cockroaches to be like that and Ogre Slumlord .
Cockroach Infestation
Creature - Insect
When a nontoken creature dies, at the beginning of the next end step, create a token copy of Cockroach Infestation.
1/1
This is designed to basically limit how combos using it can work. Also, it'll be amazing in a devotion deck, as every token is 3 devotion to black.
I'd like to see a White card that uses the Battalion/Mentor mechanic, and also creates token copies of itself, like Legion Warboss , making copies of itself, and monowhite.

Really fun looking deck!
If you feel like you need more mass recursion, I have had success with Balthor the Defiled and Twilight's Call. Soul-Guide Lantern might also be nice to prevent others from benefitting as well as to help counter other graveyard decks.
Endless Cockroaches and Brood of Cockroaches also might be a way to have another reliable sac creatures. Plus they are cockroaches so I mean, come on :)

Brilliant suggestion(s) Peoyogon.
I’m going to pass on Reassembling Skeleton because I have limited free slots to tamper with (This build works with a synergy other decks seldom achieve), but Contamination stopped me in my tracks. It’s on theme, potent, and affordable enough to merit consideration. If I coupled the board altering quality of that enchantment along with your other suggestion of Endless Cockroaches , I believe I can more or less shut down the specific decks I was struggling against in my playtesting (specifically a brutal Green deck that ramps very quickly into a Craterhoof Behemoth finisher).
I’ll pass on Brood of Cockroaches because life points are a factor in this build. But the other two suggestions are fantastic. They’ll almost certainly be included. What would you suggest I remove to add 4x of each?

I love the theme of your deck!
It might be kind of a difficult card to work around but your description really reminded me of Contamination . If you did want to use it, creatures like Reassembling Skeleton , Endless Cockroaches , or Brood of Cockroaches all seem to still fit the mood of your deck while also synergyzing with contamination. What do you think?
